  • Oh, oh. I can pitch in! I’ve met 5, personally. Every single one of them inherited the position from their parents or had a head start by having wealthy parents.

    Out of the ones that inherited the jobs: 1 is the owner of a small hotel for which the general manager and the rest of the staff do all the work and have all the stress. She’s 35-ish and hasn’t worked a day in the last 4 years.

    Second one is top 100 richest person in the country and she has directors and managers doing all the actual work and she just supervises them. Her biggest stress is her younger brother that actually works and is trying to take her businesses away from her. Instead of… you know… sharing and being stress-free.

    Out of the “self made” ones: one somehow managed under communism, at 36, to be the chief of some government branch. Travelled a lot and shit. At the time, in 1990, he had a house, a car, 1000$ in savings (average, not minimum, salary at the time was 150$). And he got a 20k $ mortgage to start his own business, so that couldn’t have been a cheap house. (Google says you could buy a 3 bedroom apartment in the center of the capital for 20k)

    Other ones are just more of the same. Parents sent them to study abroad, get a bunch of experience, then they came back, used money most people don’t have to start businesses and now at 40 they don’t need to work anymore.

    So…yeah… stop licking their butts, please.

    Oh, and forgot to mention that 2 of them went to prison for corruption and tax evasion. One of them also beat his wife, but she didn’t file any charges afaik cause she was just as crazy as him.

    Oh, and he offered me a job abroad, promised to pay my rent for half a year to help me get settled. He fired me after a month when he realized he didn’t need me anymore and let me fend for myself. Ofc he also only paid a month of rent. So… yeah jobless and homeless in a foreign country was fun.






  • They’ve all taken the Torah that Moses dreamt up and made their own version with hookers and blackjack. You can spin it however you want, but it’s true. The fact that it’s not copied word for word doesn’t change the fact that it’s the same foundation.

    The Egyptians and the Mesopotamians/Babylonians influenced the Canaanite religion, then that evolved into Judaism, then that splintered into Judaism and Christianity and then came Mohammed who was like “yep, those guys and those books came from God! And I am the last prophet of God!”

    Then we got a bunch of other prophets like Joseph Smith, Nostradamus, David Koresh, Jim Jones, Ellen White, etc. So… Yeah.

    Also, I guess this is an example of how different people interpret these books. To me, 5:2 seems to speak against word vomit, which is what I was implying you’re doing in this thread and others.





  • Are you writing this comment while outside actively protesting the genocide? Cause if not, then you’re literally doing nothing to stop this. And no, voting third party might ease your conscience, but it’s not actually doing anything for Palestinians. Like… 200+ years of pointlessly voting third party has pretty much proved that. But you use words such as “pogroms” and you believe you’re right so most likely nothing I say will change your mind. But it might sway whoever reads this, so… Here’s to hoping your bullshit gets understood as such.
